    Hmmmm…. this segment focuses on an interview with the biographer of a guy who started a successful private rocket ship company, a hugely successful electric car company, a clean energy storage company, a brain/computer chip interface company, a boring company, and an AI non-profit organization - among others. And what does CNBS want to talk to the biographer about? A lame public texting company for people who think they’re important or have no lives that Elon recently bought so he could “ensure free speech.” Lol! A perfect encapsulation of why many people don’t really care for the main stream media anymore. Here’s 10 minutes I’ll never get back!

      If government subsides did not exist Tesla would still grow and everyone else would still be stagnating.

    God our Father of Jesus Christ NEVER ONCE claimed to be the Creator of the Infinite Universe. INSTEAD men hardened their Hearts, Minds, Fears & Fantasies to Creationism. So He allowed them to call Him God-Creator. He Thought " Maybe they will obey my wise laws by believing I am God." The Quantum Consciousness of Jesus Christ is Risen from the Dead.
